Every person who walks through the doors of the Ritz has a story.

Maybe it was the first show you attended. Maybe it was the first time you stepped on stage. Maybe it was a summer camp, a Tuesday Troupe production, a volunteer project, or a special memory shared with family and friends.

As we prepare for our From Spark to Story season, we want to hear from you:

✨🔥 We had a SPARK of something special in Snyder last week! 🔥✨

We were honored to host a special visit from the Texas Historical Commission and the Texas Plains Trail Region, who led an incredible workshop on Visitor Experiences right here in Snyder.

We were thrilled to welcome around 40 attendees from across our region to Martha Ann’s, including representatives from amazing partner organizations like:
⭐ The National WASP WWII Museum in Sweetwater
⭐ The Bush Family Home Museum in Midland
⭐ Frontier Texas! in Abilene
…and several more!

These groups are all part of our regional partnerships as we prepare for the Smithsonian Museum on Main Street: Spark! Places of Innovation exhibit coming to Snyder for six weeks beginning October 2nd! 🎉
